rescheduling is the name of the game.

jennlkIn my email this morning was a notice that they were cancelling today's blood drive due to 'unforeseen circumstances'. Yesterday, they called to remind me about my appointment to donate, so my best guess is that a nurse or two was called to cover somewhere else, or the truck broke down.
I still went out upon errands, though. We were getting below my comfort level on a lot of things (as in, the last unit had been brought up from the pantry). I haven't really been grocery shopping all month, between my schedule and other people's panic buying, so that's not too surprising. I went to two grocery stores, Costco, and the coffee shop in town. Got everything on my list except rice and the frozen chimichangas that DB and I sometimes eat for lunch. (the coffee shop in town was not a necessary stop, but I was hungry, and given a choice between supporting a fast food joint and them? ZZ's wins.) The fridged stuff and fresh veg got disinfected before being brought in (MI has lots of cases, and western Washtenaw county is not free of them), and the rest will sit out in the car in plastic boxes (to keep the mousies out) until Sunday or until we need them, whichever comes first.
Yesterday morning I got a call from the PT clinic - "we're restructuring our treatment days, can you reschedule your appointments?" I have no schedule anymore, so I most certainly can reschedule.
Yesterday afternoon, I did yardwork! Raked up the willow branches (again! -- a couple of windy days since the last time we did it means more coming down); pulled weeds/grasses back around the well-point so the crocuses have more space; and weeded the deckside bed. There was a Bloop as I went past the pond, so at least one amphibian survived. I wasn't expecting any to be out yet, so wasn't looking at the pond, but I heard the bloop as it dove into the water, and saw ripples..... a bit cooler today, and rain much more imminent, so no yardwork. That, and my shoulders and back are very annoyed with me for yesterday's efforts.
